INCLUDES A NEW INTRODUCTION FROM DAVID MITCHELL 'Love doesn't just sit there like a stone it
has to be made like bread remade all the time made new' Two people until recently strangers
find themselves on a long tortuous and dangerous journey across the ice. One is an outcast
forced to leave his beloved homeland the other is fleeing from a different kind of
persecution. What they have in common is curiosity about others and themselves and an almost
unshakeable belief that the world can be a better place. As they journey for over 800 miles
across the harshest most inhospitable landscape they discover the true meaning of friendship
and of love. The Left Hand of Darkness is a true fiction masterpiece from one of the great
writers of the 20th century. 'It's a giant thought experiment that's also a cracking good read
about gender' Neil Gaiman
